Zurich – The cantonal structure plan is adapted every year to respond to developments. The Government Council has now referred the template for the latest partial revision to the Cantonal Council.

The cantonal structure plan manages spatial development in the canton of Zurich in the long-term, explained the Government Council in a statement. It was adopted in March 2014 following seven years of review. During this time, contracts were awarded and legislative changes meant that, for example, adjustments needed to be made to water conservation. Changes were also made to certain projects.

The 2015 partial revision, which included the updated chapters, took only these changes into account. Held between November 2015 and February 2016, the public consultation received a total of 170 submissions. They contained suggestions and objections, which have now been incorporated into the new template. The submissions came from both authorities and private persons.
